The Somerensche Heide and the Boksenberg are forests in the municipality of Someren in the Dutch province of North Brabant. The forests are owned by the municipality. Until 1920, the Somerensche Heide was a vast heathland area between the Strabrechtse Heide and the agricultural area of Weert, intersected only by the Maarheezerdijk and the Kerkedijk. The latter led from Someren to the former border church at De Hutten. The nutrient-poor Peelrijt flowed through the heath. Between 1920 and 1930, the Peelrijt was canalized and the greater part of the area was converted into agricultural land. The village of Someren-Heide also originated here. The remaining sections (approx. 500 ha) were planted with conifers.
